Purrfect Pals: Summer cats and kittens
LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The summer is kicking off with a new group of cats and kittens at Lake County Animal Care and Control needing homes.
This week's felines include kittens as young as 12 weeks up to cats age 6.
In addition to spaying or neutering, cats that are adopted from Lake County Animal Care and Control are microchipped before being released to their new owner. License fees do not apply to residents of the cities of Lakeport or Clearlake.
If you're looking for a new companion, visit the shelter. There are many great pets there, hoping you'll choose them.
In addition to the animals featured here, all adoptable animals in Lake County can be seen here: http://bit.ly/Z6xHMb .
